SO proud of Queen's Belfast ACS for calling out the rampant racism in Queen's University Belfast ๐ŸŽ“ โœŠ๐Ÿพ Queenโ€™s has avoided actively tackling conversations on race for too long despite so many efforts that have been made, and to follow that with performative solidarity is UNACCEPTABLE ๐Ÿ’ฅ๐Ÿ™…๐Ÿพโ€โ™€๏ธ

read this. feel enraged that students at our university have to undergo this treatment and abuse. we need to be doing so much more to protect Black students at university - performative solidarity will not work.

Our Black students have suffered in silence and are constantly let down by our QUB. Over the past 2 yrs the number of Black students I have had come to me with horrific instances of racism but are unwilling to report it due to the sheer lack of trust they have in QUB is just ๐Ÿคฏ

Our Black students are in pain ๐Ÿ’” You cannot read this letter and not feel the pain, or see the the racist climate within Queen's University Belfast ๐ŸŽ“ but also in a wider societal context in NI. I strongly urge our Chancellor Hillary Clinton & Professor Sir Ian Greer to listen to our students & reflect.โœŠ๐Ÿพ

Incredibly powerful open letter from the Afro-Caribbean Society (Queen's Belfast ACS) calling out Queen's University's role in perpetuating structures of racial oppression within the academy, performative solidarity, and the urgent need to decolonise the institution. Solidarity.

There is an urgent need for Queen's University Belfast ๐ŸŽ“ Professor Sir Ian Greer to meet the demands of our Black students with strong, radical & active commitments to change as opposed to empty words. Proud to stand with Queen's Belfast ACS in this fight. We MUST dismantle the power structures that oppress us โœŠ๐Ÿพ

Also a quick TW/CW for vile racism in the comments of the Belfast Live tweet about the article. If anything to me, those comments just proof the huge issue we have in NI on talking about racism- but especially on how quick people are to silence young Black voices.
